Intergenerational Women's Bible Study: Celebrating Sabbath
Please fill out the form if you’d like more information:
Celebrating Sabbath: Accepting God’s Gift of Rest and Delight
Come for a time of Bible study and fellowship where women of all ages are invited to get together from 6:00-7:30 p.m. at Robbie Staubes’ house in Mount Pleasant.
September through May we will get together to consider Sabbath
as a celebration, not a day of dreary formality
as God’s intent for all of creation and that includes busy women too
as one day of the week, perhaps a Sunday
as a time to surrender unhealthy striving and frantic busyness, and instead trust God will provide
as a reminder that life is precious and working too much is against God’s plans for our precious lives
as a day devoted to community and justice and not exclusively to self-care
Ultimately, Sabbath reminds us to honor God who
honors us by giving us a day each week to reset our pace, our priorities, and our lives. Friends and visitors are welcome.
Extra copies of the lesson are made available in the narthex ahead of each meeting.
